Here, the classic Norman pear variety Domfront is mixed with juniper berries, vanilla, lemon, black pepper and iris root in a brand new gin from Christian Drouin. The result is a gin that exudes pear, white fruits, black pepper and iris and has a wonderful, bold body. Drink it plain or with tonic and a slice of pear or a little elderflower.
Calvados house Christian Drouin was founded immediately after the Second World War by Christian Drouin, who had set himself the goal of producing the absolute best calvados in the world. This initially led him to seek out the area’s smaller winegrowers to buy up their stocks of calvados, which laid the foundation for the house’s exceptional collection of vintage calvados. In 1960, Christian Drouin then decided to take the plunge and produce his own calvados . However, 19 years had to pass before he felt that the collection of old eau de vies combined with his own production was sufficiently large for him to bottle the first calvados under the house’s own name.
Since then, Christian Drouin has had tremendous success, and today you can boast of having received more awards and prizes for the product range than all other calvados producers combined! Today it is the son, Christian Drouin d. 2, who has taken over. In addition to the famous vintage calvados that date back to 1939, the house also produces a number of fantastic blends, pommeaus and ciders.
